  1. Front Royal, VA RAN is now open

    Used it today! Great location. Right off 66 with lots of amenities around.
  2. Ride quality R1S vs R1T? Should I be worried about reviews?

    I would do the 22s again though I donā€™t think you can go wrong here. But this is hard to answer as I have to include the caveat that the air suspension definitely settles or breaks in after the first few months. My R1S is a dramatically better ride than it was when I took delivery December 30th...
  3. Ride quality R1S vs R1T? Should I be worried about reviews?

    After banging around on potholed city roads for 1,500 miles, my R1S felt different but I thought it was in my head. Upon delivery, it was fine but I couldnā€™t quite find a setting that comfortably handled said terrible roads. ā€œFlintyā€ was the word a magazine reviewer used and I, begrudgingly...
  4. Rivian confirms no Meridian Sound System in my R1S. It has in-house audio system

    Iā€™d been wondering if Rivian simply stopped paying for the name itself. Meridian offers ā€œwhite labelā€ partnership.
  5. Lights flickering when charging R1T

    I can contribute here too as I have the same problem with my R1S: flickering house LED lights when charging (I simply schedule it for overnight as a temp fix). But, let me add a few points to consider: -My Tesla M3 Performance charges off the same (14-50) plug with the Tesla mobile charger with...
  6. R1S delivered. Delighted and impressed overall.

    In my case, Iā€™m waiting a bit on the lift gate if only for Rivian to get the service centers at speed. If it rattled or squeaked, it would have been scheduled immediately. But, as is, maybe they figure out the ā€œtrickā€ on getting it set up properly about the time I need to have it in for...
  7. R1S delivered. Delighted and impressed overall.

    That lift gate is a consistent problem on the R1S, it seems. Mine in GW as well looks v similar but, perhaps, slightly better. Other than clearly having an issue with their production install/QC at factory, part of the lift gate issue is angle as the back is a slight curve, part of it is the...
  8. What do you want addressed in the next OTA update?

    I back down my driveway on a hill and the high regenerative braking is difficult to modulate in reverse going down the incline. Iā€™d like the option for it to automatically run off in reverse and stay on high for everything else. Small thing, I know.
  9. Cadillac Lyric - first impression

    Buggy, crashing software ā€¦but nice panel gaps!
  10. Trip Report: 4 Hours of Driving + 3 Hours of Off Roading (15 Rivians) State Forest Event

    This looks great! Iā€™m so disappointed I missed it. Please plan another!
  11. After two and a half weeks with my R1S...

    I think youā€™re on to something here. Mine is 17xx, built in October 22 as well, and has the wood too.
  12. Does the R1S not come with the compressor kit?

    Compressor kit came standard in my R1S LE.
  13. Quad motor vs locking diff

    Is it time to bring up CarPlay in this thread? (Asking for a friend)
  14. Ride quality R1S vs R1T? Should I be worried about reviews?

    I agree here. My R1S bests the 2021 Volvo XC90 it replaced. And my air-suspension Jeep Grand Cherokee before that. And any number of rental SUVs. I prefer it to my Tesla Model 3 performance as well. Iā€™ve found it ridiculously competent ā€”particularly for an SUV.
  15. R1S Review: "The Tesla Bronco Defender" -- Throttle House

    They werenā€™t criticizing high speed on-road handling while using all terrain tires, were they? Oh waitā€¦ Theyā€™re funny ā€”but between not acknowledging the tires and the four press (when it only takes one) steering wheel adjustment, theyā€™re hard to take seriously.
  16. Need new battery pack replacement!

    I donā€™t have my R1S yet (this Friday!). But, I can report battery pack replacements happen as I just had my 2020 Tesla Model 3 Performance in after 20k miles for a replacement (under warranty). The amazing thing to me was that nothing had gone wrong ā€”just one day I got a service soon message w a...
  17. Climate control in Rivian App is grayed out?

    I second thisā€” same thing happens w my Tesla (esp when it comes to turning on climate).
  18. R1T Rollover Flipped!

    That time my wife drove into the side of our house. She declared: ā€œI was being careful!ā€ Me: ā€œNo, actually, by definitionā€¦ā€
  19. My R1S Delivery & Initial Thoughts!

    How does it compare to the Jeep Grand Cherokee in terms of ride and other dynamics?
  20. R1S Delivery Update Email (June 30, 2022)

    My suspicion for awhile has been that the supply chain issues and production chaos is far worse than theyā€™re saying or we can see. This is why they canā€™t be and havenā€™t been more transparent ā€”investors will revolt and preorders will stall and shrink or vice versa. Theyā€™re playing the string out...
